You may be able to find hood/hatch struts that will work. They hook in the same way so really all you'd need is something that has the same stroke length as the stock ones. I did a little digging around to see if I could find anything, but I haven't found anything yet.

did you ever find stronger lifts? I’m going to need one strong enough for a full size spare tire one day

Worth it, I got lucky and ordered and arrived like 1 day later. Then person 10 mins later was back ordered weeks.
Just order and forget them. If you have wing, get the heavy wing one.

You're going to fit a spare tire on top of your trunk???
The trunk doesn't open right up with the stock shocks, right? At least mine never has...

I ordered the hood and deck lid struts, deck lid struts were back ordered but only for a few days. Already installed both of them - work great.

Heavyweight Trunk struts fitted..
Unfortunately, the trunk does not pop right up after release. I have the Steeda Functional Race Wing, on assurance that Steeda had tested the strut kit with this extra weight I purchased a set.
I can bounce in my seat or rock the car and it opens OK, but get some funny looks if I do. I have worked WD40 into all the hinge pins, but still have a sticking issue. The Struts had the right label on the bag as heavy duty version.
No having Automatic complete pop up isn’t the end of the world... hey ho.
